Mains and Goals for Online Cubing Open 2021​

After a while i participate in an online Comp again. Here are my Mains and Goals for the online comp tomorrow.
3x3: My Main is the rs3m 2020 and i would like to get a Sub 11 Avg. Maybe also a Sub 10 single, but i prefer a good Avg. Maybe it is good enough for a good place.
4x4: My Main is the Cubikon Cheeky Sheep and id like to get a Sub 55 Avg and a Sub 50 Sgl maybe.
5x5: I really look forward to this Event. My Main is the MGC5 and my Goal is a Sub 1:27 Avg. For Single id like to get a Sub 1:20.
Pyra: I practised it much lately.My Main is a Qiyi no name Cube and i wanna get a Sub 7 Ao5 at least. A Sub 5 single should be possible too.
I hope i am going to perform well. I practised Comp style recently so it shouldnt be too bad. Wish me the best!
